Electricians Poole

We are on call 24/7 for emergency call outs and repair works.

We are reliable, local electricians serving Poole and the surrounding areas. From Sandbanks and Canford Cliffs to Parkstone, Broadstone, Hamworthy and Upton, our NAPIT-approved team looks after homes and businesses across the BH postcodes with electrical work that’s safe, tidy and certified to BS 7671. Whether it’s a full installation, an urgent repair or routine maintenance, you’ll get honest advice, clear pricing and workmanship we stand behind.

Electrical work across Poole’s neighbourhoods

Sandbanks, Canford Cliffs & Lilliput — Premium coastal homes here often want EV chargers, outdoor and landscape lighting, garden-room power and smart-home wiring. Salt air is hard on external electrics, so we fit weatherproof, corrosion-resistant kit for anything mounted outside.

Parkstone, Ashley Cross & Penn Hill — A lot of period and Victorian property, which usually means ageing wiring, undersized fuse boards and too few sockets. Rewires and consumer unit upgrades are the everyday work in these streets.

Hamworthy, Upton & Turlin Moor — A mix of family housing and light-commercial units around the peninsula; we handle extra circuits, garden power, fault-finding and landlord safety certificates.

Broadstone, Merley, Oakdale & Creekmoor — Established residential streets where consumer unit upgrades, EICRs for house sales and EV charger installs are the most common requests.

Poole Old Town & the Quay — Newer flats and converted commercial space, where we handle landlord EICRs, communal-area lighting and commercial fit-outs.

What Our Clients Think About Us

Really pleased with the work carried out to install 2 x extractors and a PIV unit. The work was much more involved than first thought, and the poor guy was working in our loft on the hottest day of the year! But he returned a second day to finish up and the original price was honoured. A pleasure having you in our home and feeling the benefits of the extractors and PIV as soon as they were turned on!

EquineVeteranCollection

Highly recommended for my job of CCTV installation. Nicolas, Shaun and Matt provided a very professional, cost effective, seamless and friendly service. Shaun was immensely knowledgeable on best positioning of my camera and his installation of the system was faultless.

Carolyn Kell

Very helpful service. They responded quickly when we needed a swift turnaround and installed our car charger exactly as needed.

Matthew Butcher

Following our EICR with Dorset Electrical Services, many faults were found due to our wiring being so old. These issues were identified and remedied without issue at a very reasonable cost. The works were completed to a high standard and my property left very clean afterwards. Would definitely recommend their services.

Elizabeth Pope

We brought a house with 12 solar panels just over a month ago. We knew the panels were not serviced or cleaned since installed 10 years ago (2013) We reached out to DES Ltd who completed a full service and cleaning service. Not only was the job done to a high standard but the knowledge shared and showing us how the system worked has be valuable. Highly recommend and thank you. Regards Riad

Riad Lynch

DES carried out 3 jobs fitting a PIV unit, bathroom fan extractor and EV charger. From initial request through the website the team quoted through a quick house visit and gave a really good price for the work. Some great advise was also given regarding the PIV unit and condensation issues. All jobs carried out to a high standard and all mess cleaned up straight away. Highly recommend!

Why CCTV pays off

Five ways a system protects your business

Protects against burglary

Visible cameras are a powerful deterrent — intruders are far less likely to target a property they know is recorded.

Prevents employee theft

A culture of accountability and transparency, with the presence of cameras discouraging dishonest practices.

Deters shoplifting

Real-time monitoring lets staff spot and address suspicious behaviour, with footage that stands up as evidence.

24/7 peace of mind

Continuous surveillance you can check any time from your phone — instant awareness of anything unusual.

Lowers vandalism risk

Knowing an area is monitored discourages criminal damage — protecting your premises and your bottom line.
